Warm fingers and toes naturally using Inuit traditional knowledge--and the unbelievably soft winter undercoat of muskoxen.
Unlike most commercial hand-warming technologies, NUNA HEAT hand warmers are sustainable, fully biodegradable, reusable, and washable.
Simply add a handful to your mitts, socks, or boots--and experience the exceptional insulating power of the world's most precious natural fibre, as grown by the ancient Arctic NUNA, the land.
Each pack of NUNA HEAT contains: approx. 4 grams of 100% wild NWT muskoxen qiviut fibre sourced from Inuit harvesters feeding their communities. This fibre supports a traditional, local food system! Your Nuna Heat qiviut has been washed, dehaired, and carded (brushed) into roving--a long fibre strip. A re-usable cotton carrying pouch is now included!
We find 4 grams of qiviut to be an ideal amount to warm both hands (or both feet). Need more warmth? The more Nuna Heats you use, the warmer you are!
1 NUNA HEAT: $26.99
2+ NUNA HEATS: $49.98 ($24.99 each)
4+ NUNA HEATS: $95.96 ($23.99 each)
Now in a biodegradable package with labels designed by Lexis Panigaq McDonald.
INSTRUCTIONS: Remove qiviut from package and break into two sections--one for each mitten! Add to the ends of mitts, or inside socks or boots. You can even use qiviut inside the fingers of your gloves!
WASHING (how-to video here!): Hand warmers need washing only occasionally, but when you do want to clean them, add qiviut to a small container of warm, soapy water. Let soak, or give it a gentle scrub (but don't worry about felting it--it won't felt!). Rinse well, and lay out to dry. It will air dry very quickly and be ready to go!
QIVIUT QUALITY GUARANTEE: At Qiviut Inc, our qiviut fibre is 100% sourced from wild NWT muskoxen sustainably harvested for food in Inuit communities. We comb out our fibre by hand to preserve the full staple length, and we make all our products here in Canada!
